St. Martin & St. Barths
European Flair, Caribbean Rhythm
Sail between French sophistication and Dutch vibrance.
St Martin is a single island with two distinct identities — French Saint-Martin and Dutch Sint Maarten — making it one of the Caribbean’s most cosmopolitan yacht charter destinations. The French side is known for relaxed sophistication, open-air cafés, chic harbours, and a celebrated culinary scene, while the Dutch side offers lively marinas, vibrant nightlife, and bustling beach resorts.
Just a short sail away, St Barths (Saint Barthelemy) adds a distinctly French character to the journey. Predominantly French-speaking and effortlessly stylish, the island is renowned for its elegant harbours, pristine beaches, and refined yet relaxed atmosphere. Together, St Martin and St Barths offer a perfectly balanced Caribbean sailing experience — combining culture, style, and island life, best discovered by yacht.
Also within easy reach is Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Eastern Caribbean, known for its powder-white beaches, crystal-clear waters, and relaxed, low-key elegance. Just a short sail from St Martin, Anguilla is easily included in a weekly yacht charter itinerary, offering quiet anchorages, excellent beach dining, and a slower pace that perfectly complements the energy of St Martin and the style of St Barths.
